According to the Simi Valley Acorn, on Aug. 30, Donda Academy Inc. requested a permit change of occupancy for the former Simi Valley Stoneridge Preparatory School, which closed in the early 2010s.

Per the lease listing, the property includes a 5,728-square-foot school with classrooms, lab space, offices, kitchen, restrooms, storage, a basketball court, and a large open field.
Donda Academy, an homage to Kanye’s late mother, will be a tuition-free private school that will serve 60 students from kindergarten through high school. According to MTV News, the school will offer computer-science courses, STEM courses, Japanese, and physical-education courses.
“Donda Academy prepares students to become the next generation of leaders, thinkers, and innovators, by providing them with a world-class education,” said Beulah McLoyd, the academy’s education consultant.
